I’m very young in my card counting, so movies like 21 and although you didn’t mention it but the last casino draw my attention to black jack as a kid, which led me to Ed Thorpe and card counting. So while most of these films are fictional and entertaining, it can be used as a tool of inspiration to the actual science behind rather than the Hollywood fallacy.

The Last Casino wasn't nearly as bad compared to other card counting movies, but it did have many issues. Like Rain Man, The Last Casino, showed them winning every session they played disciplined on. Their final blackjack scene was just dumb illegal gambling with basic strategy, and it promoted the foolish Martingale strategy. Once again, the card counters were depicted as losers in the end, which was pathetic. I don't like the film depicting card counters as addicted gamblers. Save that for Josh Axelrad's story.

There's a casino near where I live but it states the following: It isn’t the perfect choice if you’re planning on counting cards, as the dealers tend to place the cut card near the middle of the shoe. Typically you can’t expect to see more than three decks in a six deck game. That means that you won’t be able to benefit greatly from card counting here. However, one good thing about this casino is that it has a pretty large number of tables, so you will be able to migrate and perhaps you’ll manage to find a dealer who doesn’t cut the cards as often. If you play as part of a group, you might have more success, as there is an option of mid-shoe entry at some of the tables that have lower limits. Due to the fact that the dealers are instructed to cut the cards more often, you are not likely to be followed around. Will your technique work with the mentioned above?
@leafsoup2 жыл бұрын
Better deck penetration means better odds, so it will be less likely to get higher counts since they reset at 50%. You can still probably get to a true count of 1 at least more often, but you won't see a true count of 4+ very often or for very long.

So what you’re card counting but the casino takes the first card off the shoe and doesn’t show it and places it on the card slot where all the cards that have been played every round go. Would card counting still work even though you have no idea what the first card the dealer put away?
@stevenhelgason81902 жыл бұрын
It would still work - absolutely. The vast majority of the time there is going to be a "burn" card. And the vast majority of time the player won't see it. If you do - great, but don't worry about it - it's pretty negligible. Just consider it as one of the unseen cards behind the cut card in the shoe. If fact, I'll step into a game with up to a half deck or more in the discard tray if I know the penetration of the shoe was excellent. You just have to add the unseen cards to your tally of decks left to play. But this is generally not worth doing if you've missed more than the first several rounds. Ideally you want to start from the beginning!

I am confused. granted I haven't be trying to learn card counting for very long, but in my brief experience, the more decks you have in play, the more extreme the running count can sway in one direction or another. You might be able to go through a single deck and never get more than a +2 which can come and go in a single hand. I'm confused because wouldn't that mean that more decks potentially give a player more opportunity to improve their edge? I'm sure the math is more complicated than that, but i feel like a single deck would be really hard to play because the minute you have an advantage, it evaporates or the deck runs out.

You are correct in your assumption to stand. 16 vs 10 is one of the most common and important index or deviation plays where you deviate from basic stategy which is based on neutral deck probabilities. There are quite a number of index plays. Research them. How does the math work out? 16 vs. 10 is about the worst situation in blackjack for the player. So sometimes you have to ask yourself with the attitude - "what is the play that would give me the least chance of me losing? Hitting that hand with a high count would be terrible. Standing would only be a slightly less terrible( regarding mathematical expectation). Surrendering, while still terrible, would be the desirable play if rules allow.

It takes time to reshuffle and start a new shoe, regardless of how many cards have been dealt. Casino loses a lot of money if they take the time to reshuffle/start a new shoe too often. So they have to balance things out. Several casinos have 8 deck games and deal only 6 decks before ending a shoe. So several casinos now have brought out CSM(continuous shuffle machines), where the cards are continuously shuffled in this machine(old cards are placed in it),so there is no advantage to card counting this way. Many blackjack(non-counters also) players don't like them, so this is one reason why they aren't used on every table.

I could be wrong about this - it's just my opinion. But it's a fun challenge. And it is a grind too - not really a glamorous life. Most important thing is that you have to have enough bankroll to withstand downturns - at least 1000 betting units or 100 times your max bet level. Losing streaks can be more severe and prolonged than you think. I'm just a hobbyist and fortunately, I've kept my bankroll intact, but don't have enough to commit to high stakes. For instance, to play the playable games on the Las Vegas Strip, you'd need at least 50k. So, if you visit that city, best to play off strip on the 10 and 15 dollar tables if you only have 10 grand ore something like that. I don't live near too many casinos either and spend part of the year where there are none. Good luck if you try this ( yes luck, or "positive variance" factors in too}. Don't forget the importance of bankroll management. If you can somehow keep money off the table in negative counts, that'll help over time.

So, i have a question Card counting is used to find out if there are more high or low cards remaining in the shoe. You want the count to be high so there are more high cards and that is good for you (the player). But, isnt it also good for the dealer to get high cards?

No. Because the dealer must hit to 17 and if there is a high ratio of 10's left in the deck, they're more likely to bust on a stiff hand. The player has the option to stand on whatever total he wants such as 12-16. It is true the dealer has the same probability of getting a blackjack. But when the player gets a blackjack they get paid 3:2, When the ratio of 10's are high, the player has the added benefit of the lucrativity of double down and split opportunities. So there is at least 3 reasons that 10's are advantageous to the player.

Ok I know this is going to make people cringe, and I’m genuinely embarrassed to ask… but if the dealer shows a 6 and you had a pair of 5’s would there be any situation where you’d split ( and double down? ) … I mean you’ve got a 70% chance of dealer bust without a count … wouldn’t a great count put this up into like 90% territory?

They do the same, exact things in poker movies. No one does it properly…

I disagree that a person cannot learn to count cards on the way to Vegas. If the person is exceptionally smart and a very fast thinker, he can learn to count on the way to Vegas. A person only need to learn basic arithmetic and which cards are negative, neutral, and positive.

“Learning” how to count cards takes 2 minutes. Being good at it in an environment like a casino at the pace dealers deal cards to the point that it can be profitable in anyway will definitely take months
